摘要

When healthy people such as visitors and medical staff members or resident patients get an infection from the hospital or from each other; this situation is identified as a Hospital Acquired Infection (HAI). HAI is a key issue of current hospitals; it requires high fiscal expenditure rate for combating the problem, and it causes high mortality rate and prolongs the time of treatment in hospitals. In this paper, we analyze the existing HAI prevention solutions, and then we describe in detail our own system for HAI prevention.
